Underwater Obsession

Everything looks so different under water.

I see you and I get all wet.

Tears flow from my eyes

as you stab me with your glance.

The blood moistens my shirt,

but it is not wet enough to

kill the flame deep in my soul.

I need the pain you provide me,

I need the bruises inside.

And though it hurts

when I see you laughing at me

I can’t bear to let you go.
